I'm beginning to suspect this is all random.

Transferred from Citi Prestige on 31 July, miles showed up in less than 12 hours.
Transferred from DBS Altitude same day, still waiting for those..

On 12 July 2014 I transferred miles from Citi Rewards Card to Asia Miles. The miles reach Asia Miles on 13 July 2014 after 7pm.
It has finally reached KrisFlyer today, 05 Aug 2014 around 4pm!! 30 July to 05 Aug. 6 days!!

This is strange as my transfers almost always were overnight as I cared to diligently monitor throughout the following day. Hopefully this isn't a reflection of worsening service standard from Citibank.

Not KF, but initiated a transfer of my UOB UNI$ on the 15th to my Asiamiles account (to get the 25K bonus). Points were in my account by the evening on the 17th.
